Because polyamory does not mean no committment!!

It really depends on the type of agreement they have, as pointed out by various posters.

Please, do yourself a favor and read from different sources how poly couples handle their relationships. It really has nothing at all to do with not committing. It is just a very different process, handled different in each relationship.

It is also a myth that there never is jealousy in poly relationships. You just handle it in a less static way when it comes up, trying to really hear the needs of everybody involved instead of seeing each other as enemies.
